	Just two kilometers north of Xinzhai is the giant Laoyingyan Bridge with two spans of 160 meters. Then 2 kilometers further north is the Wanglongbao Bridge with a 160 meter beam span that soars 208 meters above a deep canyon abyss. Finally 6 kilometers north is the massive Beipanjiang Bridge Shuipan expressway with the longest beam span ever attempted on a high level bridge with a distance of 290 meters between piers. Between all these expressway bridges is the famous Beipanjiang Railway Bridge Shuibai with a height of 275 meters and the Wanlong arch bridge. This is one of only 2 places in the world where there are 6 bridges in such close proximity that are over 100 meters high. The 4 big beam bridges are located at kilometers 31, 33, 35 and 37.
